New post, day 2 of this experiment. Currently listening to: "22" by Lily Allen (via Pandora, Jesus loves you Pandora!) Funny that I didn't find this song untill I was 23; this is one of my idiosyncresies, I like listening to music that mentions my particular age in it. For example, March 16 2010 I listened to "Let That Be Enough" by Switchfoot over and over. You see, it was love at first listen (which I would say was about a decade ago?) with this song, and there's a line that says, "it's my birthday tomorrow, noone here could know, I was born this Thursday 22 years ago." Thus, I have waited years to be able to sing these lines and have them be truthful to my life . . . yes, I'm a dork. Anyway, what makes me laugh about the afore-mentioned song by Ms. Allen is that it talks all about this girl who is being told that she was young at 22 but now that she's 30 she's old and her life is pretty much over . . . why didn't I hear it untill THIS year (now that I'm 23?)
Moving on. In reading the Yahoo news (which has been a bit routine with me every morning) I stumbled upon an article about this lady's blog: http://newdressaday.wordpress.com . Her name is Marisa and she totally inspires me, basically, she has given herself the challenge of creating once ugly thrift store/garage sale dresses into beautiful chic dresses. The catch? A dress a day, for 365 days, for only $1 in budget per day (totalling $365 at the end of the year.) She's brilliant and I am blessed to have found this blog which I am sure I will be reading regularly now because the story tickled me (as opposed to most of the mundane articles in the news today.)
In other news, yesterday, August 17, 2010 was my big brother's birthday, he celebrated 26 years of life. I should have really put this in my blog yesterday . . . I'm a failure, I'm sorry. We celebrated last night with the male parental unit and a few friends at a local spot that we go to every Tuesday night; fun times had by all.
Did I mention I have three cats? I don't think I did. Yes, Aurora (named after my favorite {and in my opinion the most beautiful} disney princess,) Alice, and Jasper. Alice and Jasper (named after my two favorite characters from Twilight) are brother and sister, Aurora is their mother and the three of them are absolutely beautiful! I rescued Aurora last year after she had been abandoned for God knows how long by her previous owners. A & J had a vet appointment yesterday *snicker* they basically shaved Jasper's beautiful bushy tail off and now he looks at me like I'm the anti-Christ.
My life never ceases to be entertaining . . .
